A New Floating Memristance Simulator Circuit Based on Second Generation Current Conveyor

Abstract

In this paper, a new floating analog memristance simulator circuit based on second generation current conveyors and passive elements is proposed. Theoretical derivations are presented which decribe the circuit characteristics. The hardware of proposed simulator circuit is built using commercially available components. Theoretical derivations are validated with PSPICE simulation and experimental results. Performance of circuit was tested with simple example circuits. All results show that proposed simulator circuit provides frequency dependent pinched hysteresis loop and nonvolatility features. Exciting frequency, minimum and maximum memristance values and memristance range can be adjustable with simple passive element values. Simulator circuit has a frequency range of 1[Formula: see text]Hz to 40[Formula: see text]kHz.

High‐frequency floating memristor emulator and its experimental results

“…• Maximum frequencies attained by [9,[22][23][24] are in the range of the Hz range, whereas [25][26][27][34][35][36] are in the kHz range, [37] is up to 1 MHz and proposed design can operate up to 5 MHz. • The proposed circuit is a floating type.…”

“…• The proposed circuit is a floating type. So it can be used between any complex circuits as in [26,27,[34][35][36][37].…”

“…• CMOS and BJT technologies are used only in the proposed circuit. • The authors of [9,22,23,25,26,[34][35][36] use more passive elements than the proposed memristor emulator circuit.…”

Second Generation Current Conveyor Based Floating Fractional Order Memristance Simulator and a New Dynamical System

“…Thanks to the low cost fractional order memristance simulator circuit created, it will be possible to realize theoretical learning methods, neural network structures, and signal processing algorithms physically. In this study, a previously defined integer order memristance simulator circuit is taken as starting point [26]. The block-diagram of the reference circuit generated by using Current Conveyors II-generation positive type (CCII+) and Analog Multiplier (AM) is given in Fig.…”

Antimonotonicity, Crisis and Multiple Attractors in a Simple Memristive Circuit

“…Thus, various memristor emulators, either constructed from off-the-shelf components, [9,10,11,12,13,14,15] or from generalized memristors based on circuits with special topologies, [9,14,15,16,17] make greater contributions to modeling, to analyzing, especially to realizing memristor-based chaotic circuits by replacing nonlinear resistance elements in classic chaotic circuits and in this way many novel features of chaotic behaviors could be observed. [18,19,20,21] In more details, several nonlinearities are used to describe the relation between magnetic flux and electric charge of these memristors, such as HP memristor model, [22,23] non-smooth piecewise linearity, [10,25] smooth cubic nonlinearity [12,18,19,26] and smooth piecewise-quadratic nonlinearity. [18,25] Generation of memristor emulators were complicated and not convenient to circuit analysis.…”
